CHICKEN OUT OPENING SOON AT COLLEGE PLAZA IN ROCKVILLE (PHOTOS)

Chicken Out, which closed further south on Rockville Pike earlier this summer, is opening a new restaurant in College Plaza.

Located on the Pike just north of Montgomery College, the space has previously been home to a KFC and an A&W Restaurant. The latter has been greatly missed by burger aficionados, as A&W has no other locations in our area.

BURTON STORE OPENS AT MONTGOMERY MALL (PHOTOS)

Snowboarding pioneer Burton opened its first store in the Metro DC area Friday, and over the weekend, shoppers at Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda had a chance to explore the new space.

Now you can do that from your easy chair at home, with my virtual store tour. As you will see in the photos below, there is a wide selection of Burton apparel, and all of the necessary equipment: snowboards, bindings and boots, to name a few.

This is the first Burton retail store to feature this specific configuration; others are massive flagship stores or warehouse-outlet stores. Another first for Westfield Montgomery Mall, following the first Hoamgar location outside of Asia, Aroma Espresso Bar, Tesla Store, Dumpling Dojo, and - coming soon - The Cheesecake Factory.

BURTON STORE OPENING FRIDAY AT WESTFIELD MONTGOMERY MALL (PHOTO)

Snowboarding pioneer Burton has announced its new store at Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda will open this Friday. Originally expected to open this fall, it is actually opening ahead of schedule.

The store is the first of its kind for Burton - not a flagship store, and not a massive outlet mall warehouse store. So the selection of equipment, apparel, and accessories will be interesting to check out. They will definitely have lots of snowboards - that I can confirm.

This will also be the only Burton Store in the region.
